Abomasal displacement is a common issue in older lactating dairy cattle, often occurring within the first month post-parturition. This displacement, specifically left-sided displacement (LDA), is associated with high concentrate diets, rumen atony, and gas distension. Recognizing the signs and cause

Bovine ketosis is a metabolic disease affecting lactating dairy cows, characterized by weight loss, reduced milk production, and neurological abnormalities. It is primarily caused by a negative energy balance post-parturition, leading to the mobilization of body fat and protein stores for energy pro

Normal parturition, also known as childbirth, involves several stages including uterine contractions, cervix dilatation, fetal positioning, and the weakening of the placental connection. The process gradually prepares the birth canal for delivery, with the fetus assuming a specific position for birt

Induction of parturition in mammals involves the essential roles of progesterone, luteal regression, fetal cortisol, and the shift from progesterone to estrogen. This process is crucial for saving the lives of both the dam and fetus. Corticosteroids like dexamethasone and flumethasone are commonly u

Labor, also known as parturition, is the process of uterine contractions leading to the expulsion of the fetus. Various hormonal changes, including increased estrogen levels, play a crucial role in triggering and regulating labor. The progression from a quiescent uterus to active contractions involv

Labor, or parturition, involves uterine contractions leading to the fetus's expulsion. Factors triggering labor include hormonal changes like increased estrogen and decreased progesterone, which stimulate uterine muscle activity. Telocytes play a role in spontaneous uterine activity, while oxytocin

The journey of pregnancy involves three distinct stages, each crucial for the development of the growing embryo. The ovum stage marks the attachment of the blastocyst to the uterus, followed by the embryo/organogenesis stage where tissues and organs begin to form. Lastly, the fetus stage sees the de
